What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability?

An attacker could use this vulnerability to elevate privileges from a Low Integrity Level in a contained ("sandboxed") execution environment to a Medium Integrity Level or a High Integrity Level.

Please refer to AppContainer isolation and Mandatory Integrity Control for more information.

According to the CVSS metric, successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?

In this case, a successful attack could be performed from a low privilege AppContainer. The attacker could elevate their privileges and execute code or access resources at a higher integrity level than that of the AppContainer execution environment.

Are there any further actions I need to take to be protected from this vulnerability?

Yes. The Windows Smart Card infrastructure relies on the Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) and Key Storage Provider (KSP) to isolate cryptographic operations from the Smart Card implementation. The KSP is part of the Crypto Next Generation (CNG) architecture and is intended to support modern smart cards. In the case of RSA based certificates, the Smart Card Certificate Propagation service automatically overrides the default and uses the CSP instead of the KSP. This limits usage to the cryptography provided by the CSP and does not benefit from the modern cryptography provided by the KSP.

Beginning with the July 2024 security updates released on July 9, 2024, this vulnerability will be addressed by removing the RSA override and using the KSP as the default. This change is initially disabled by default to allow customers to test it in their environment and to detect any application compatibility issues that might occur with this change. We intend to enable this change by default with a monthly security update in early 2025.

Please enable this fix and test applications in your environment that rely on RSA based certificates and smart cards. If you detect applications that rely on the old behavior of defaulting to the CSP, work with your application vendor to update the application so that the KSP can be used by default.

The fix can be enabled by setting the following registry key. Set the registry key to the value 1 to enable the fix for CVE-2024-30098.

According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to create a SHA1 hash collision successfully.

What kind of security feature could be bypassed by successfully exploiting this vulnerability?

An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass digital signatures on a vulnerable system.

According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.

How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?

An attacker could exploit this by closing an http/3 stream while the request body is being processed leading to a race condition. This could result in remote code execution.

According to the CVSS score, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does this mean for this vulnerability?

This attack is limited to systems connected to the same network segment as the attacker. The attack cannot be performed across multiple networks (for example, a WAN) and would be limited to systems on the same network switch or virtual network.

According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to gather information specific to the environment and take additional actions prior to exploitation to prepare the target environment.

How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?

An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking an authenticated user (UI:R) into attempting to connect to a malicious SQL server database via a connection driver (for example: OLE DB or OLEDB as applicable). This could result in the database returning malicious data that could cause arbitrary code execution on the client.

I am running SQL Server on my system. What action do I need to take?

Update your relevant version of SQL Server. Any applicable driver fixes are included in those updates.

I am running my own application on my system. What action do I need to take?

Update your application to use Microsoft OLE DB Driver 18 or 19. Update the drivers to the versions listed on this page, which provide protection against this vulnerability.

I am running an application from a software vendor on my system. What action do I need to take?

Consult with your application vendor if it is compatible with Microsoft OLE DB Driver 18 or 19. Update the drivers to the versions listed in this page, which provide protection against this vulnerability

There are GDR and/or CU (Cumulative Update) updates offered for my version of SQL Server. How do I know which update to use?

• First, determine your SQL Server version number. For more information on determining your SQL Server version number, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 321185 - How to determine the version, edition, and update level of SQL Server and its components.
• Second, in the table below, locate your version number or the version range that your version number falls within. The corresponding update is the one you need to install.

Note If your SQL Server version number is not represented in the table below, your SQL Server version is no longer supported. Please upgrade to the latest Service Pack or SQL Server product in order to apply this and future security updates.

What are the GDR and CU update designations and how do they differ?

The General Distribution Release (GDR) and Cumulative Update (CU) designations correspond to the two different servicing options in place for SQL Server baseline releases. A baseline can be either an RTM release or a Service Pack release.

• GDR updates – cumulatively only contain security updates for the given baseline.
• CU updates – cumulatively contain all functional fixes and security updates for the given baseline.

For any given baseline, either the GDR or CU updates could be options (see below).

• If SQL Server installation is at a baseline version, you can choose either the GDR or CU update.
• If SQL Server installation has intentionally only installed past GDR updates, then choose to install the GDR update package.
• If SQL Server installation has intentionally installed previous CU updates, then chose to install the CU security update package.

Note: You are allowed to make a change from GDR updates to CU updates ONE TIME. Once a SQL Server CU update is applied to a SQL Server installation, there is NO way to go back to the GDR update path.

Can the security updates be applied to SQL Server instances on Windows Azure (IaaS)?

Yes. SQL Server instances on Windows Azure (IaaS) can be offered the security updates through Microsoft Update, or customers can download the security updates from Microsoft Download Center and apply them manuall
